Falling into Heaven (alternate mix)

by Rob Roper

/

about

A remix of "Falling into Heaven" from my 2011 album, "Misfit." The main change is the acoustic rhythm guitar was replaced with electric guitars. This is how I originally envisioned the song when I wrote it back in 2009. Now the song sounds right to me.

lyrics

Falling into Heaven
Copyright © 2009 by Rob Roper

Lost and found and lost again
That's the way you've always been
Running naked with the wind
Fall down, get up, fall down again

You're falling, falling... into heaven.

Go outside, talk to the trees
Hear the wisdom in the breeze
Lay your head down on the ground
Listen to the way it sounds

You're falling, falling... into heaven.

Give your spare change to a bum
Don't ask what he spends it on
Read a story to your cat
Walk around in a silly hat

You're falling, falling... into heaven.
You're falling, falling... into heaven.

(solo over verse and 2 refrains)

Lost and found and lost again
That's the way I've always been
You don't have to rescue me
It's the way I like to be

I'm falling, falling... into heaven.
I'm falling, falling... into heaven.
We're falling, falling... into heaven.
